1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The aim of the study was to conduct an integrative review on intraoral stents for head and neck radiotherapy using 3D technology. For data collection, the words were used: "intraoral stent", "oral cancer" and "3D", with their combination performed using the Boolean operator AND. Only articles in English were selected from the PubMed and LILACS databases. The search process was conducted between August and October 2024. Eight articles were found, of which seven met the established inclusion criteria. The articles demonstrate that the use of 3D technology optimizes the fabrication time of intraoral stents, directs isodose distribution to the treated area while preserving adjacent healthy tissues, and reduces side effects during the irradiation period. Evident advances in the literature regarding the innovation in the production of intraoral stents, such as 3D printing, have demonstrated effectiveness and benefits in this treatment modality.
